EcoSafe 6400, EcoBio and EcoDegradable Plastic Product Description

There are several different types of biodegradable and compostable plastics that are made specifically for different purposes. Depending on planned use and intended disposal (landfill or compost) they are all better environmental options to ordinary plastics that can persist in the environment for decades.

Plastics Solutions offer three materials. Each is engineered to serve different purposes and all three degrade and biodegrade at different rates. They are environmentally safe and contain no heavy metals. Except for time frame, the biological processes are the same, returning the “organic carbon” in the materials back to the natural bio-cycle as a food source for microorganisms.

Plastics Solution's products include:

1. EcoSafe~6400™ Compostable Plastic Trash Bags

Compostable trash bags are specifically engineered to quickly degrade in 10 to 45 days and fully biodegrade in less than 6 months when disposed of in a commercial compost facility. All EcoSafe~6400 Compostable bags meet the requirements of ASTMD6400-04 and carry the United States Composting Council/Biodegradable Products Institute certification logo.

2. EcoBio Oxo-Biodegradable™ Plastic -

EcoSafe® Doggie Bags and other compost compatible bags are produced with premium materials that will degrade/biodegrade in landfill disposal, in some longer term commercial compost operations or if carelessly littered. Depending on available oxygen and microbial activity of the disposal site, the materials will quickly degrade within 3 to 4 months and fully biodegrade in approximately 24 months.

3. EcoDegradable™ Plastic Trash Bags

Are robust degradable trash bags that provide the same performance as ordinary plastic bags but totally degrade when disposed of in a landfill or if carelessly littered. Depending on available oxygen and microbial activity of the disposal site, the materials will degrade in 18 to 24 months and biodegrade in approximately 36 months.

The EcoBio® Oxo-Biodegradable Doggie Bag is a biodegradable plastic bag that the pet owner can use to pick up his or her pet’s waste. The bag and contents can then be deposited in the trash or in an appropriate receptacle, so it can be easily and safely transferred to the local landfill. There, the plastic in the bag will totally degrade into CO₂, water and humic matter. The Doggie Bag is made of the same EcoBio® proprietary materials as are the other EcoBio® Waste Collection, garbage and linen bags. (For a summary of the pertinent benefits of this material, please see the list under the waste collection Bags section).

The EcoBio® Oxo-Biodegradable Doggie Bag totally degrades when disposed of in a landfill. We use an ASTM D6954 Oxo-biodegradable technology. This is a major, proprietary difference. The selling price is directly affected too. Our Doggie Bags are competitively priced compared to other so-called biodegradable products. You’ll be delighted with the difference.

The EcoBio® Oxo-Biodegradable Doggie Bag is an environmentally-responsible product at its very best. If you own a pet, it’s simply the environmentally responsible bag to use.
